TORONTO (AP) Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Friday that Canada is banning the use and trade of assault-style weapons immediately.
Trudeau cited numerous mass shootings in the country, including the killing of 22 people in Nova Scotia April 18 and 19. He announced the ban of over 1,500 models and variants of assault-style firearms, including the AR-15 and other weapons that have been used in a number of mass shootings in the United States

Let's see how much compliance Herr Trudeau gets.
Are they gonna ban police costumes too?
That didn’t take long.
Expect mass shootings in Canada to go up.

No debate ,nothing Trudeau does it on his own but the Indians can keep their weapons, D’oh
The gun used in the shooting was illegally obtained and illegally owned.
But hey - Im sure another law banning them will stop all murders and further ar-15 gun crime
NZ and Soviet Britain-Canada, don’t need legislatures to write laws?
I read that the shooter had only a handgun until he murdered a cop and stole her service rifle.
Thank god this new law will prevent these kinds of tragedy in the future
Trudeau, isn’t there a law banning murder???
Why doesn’t it work???
What about pointy sticks? can we still have pointy sticks?
Its definitional. Nothing more.
All your pointy sticks are belong to us!
Must be comforting to know that nobody in Canada shall ever die tragically again. /s
I’ll get a beaver to chew a new one!
I bet Trudeau Wet Himself when he signed that
Well sure. Criminals probably would use illegal weapons. But they wouldnt dare have a weapon that was doubly illegal.
Does Canada’s Constitution give the Government the power to unilaterally do this?
I knew law abiding Canadians would pay the price for the actions of one criminal.
There is a reason they have a Loonie on their currency. :)
Why ban something that does not exist (according to Michael Moore)?
